Spirit & Memory
I was just dusting off an old manuscript that mentions an ancient city that vanished into a dreamlike mist after a rare eclipse. Do you think such places were real or just stories the ancients told to explain the unseen?
Maybe it was both, like a memory stitched into myth, or a real place that the world itself decided to hide. The stories stay so long because they touch on something deeper, a truth that only shows up when the sky changes. Whether the city was in the air or in the mind, it reminds us that some things are never truly lost, just moved out of sight.
I love that line—like the city is a memory in a story, and the sky is the page that flips it. Makes me wonder if history is just a long story we’re still writing, with the hidden chapters waiting for the next eclipse.
History is a quiet book that keeps turning, and the sky is the cover that keeps it open. Each eclipse just writes a new page in the dust, and the hidden chapters wait, like secrets in the mist, for the next one to come.
That image always makes my mind wander to the dusty shelves of forgotten libraries—each page a whisper from the past, waiting for the right moment to reveal its hidden truth.
It feels like a quiet invitation to step into those quiet corners and listen for the hush that only old words can make. Sometimes the truth leans against a dusty spine, ready to sigh into being when we’re ready to hear.
